As a Democrat, President Biden confirmed his candidacy despite concerns that his age of 80 could be a burden. He served as vice president under the Barack Obama administration for eight years starting in 2009, and ran in the November 2020 presidential election, defeating then-President Donald Trump to become the 46th president of the United States. Former President Trump also declared his third presidential run last November.
